Women suffer fi rst home lossMichael [email protected]

Entering Saturdayʼs game against Southern Utah, the UNC womenʼs basketball team had won all nine of its home games this season and carried a nine-game winning streak overall.

Neither trend contin-ued to double-digits as the University of Northern Colorado (16-10, 13-4 Big Sky) fell 73-57 at Butler-Hancock Sports Pavilion in a game tilting in South-ern Utahʼs (13-13, 7-9) fa-vor all afternoon.

With 7:42 left in the fi rst half, junior guard Dʼshara Strange made a layup to put the Bears ahead 19-12. She made another 2:58 into the sec-ond half. The only prob-lem was that UNC didnʼt make a fi eld goal between the two, allowing South-ern Utah to mount a 27-5 run and take a 39-24 lead before the drought ended.

“We had a little bit of a lead but then we kind of lost composure and we started kind of falling apart,” head coach Jaime White said. “We had a turnover and an imme-diate foul. We put them to the line for six points right before halftime. That doesnʼt help anything.”

Student brings dance craze to campusConor McCabe [email protected]

The most recent vi-ral dance craze to sweep the nation is the Harlem Shake, and with the abil-ity to instantly circulate a video on YouTube, any-one can take part in this growing trend.

UNC student William Woods, a senior journal-ism and environmental sustainability studies ma-jor, created a Facebook event alerting the campus community to gather on

Turner G r e e n at 4:30 p.m. on T u e s -d a y of last week.

“ We o r i g i -nally planned to do it in the University Center,” Woods said. “I invited all of my friends on Face-book and it started with three people, turned into 100 people, then 500 peo-ple. That s̓ when I decided

we couldnʼt do it at the UC anymore.”

Given the number of people that were planning to attend the event, fi nd-ing sound equipment loud enough became the next task.

“UNC radio helped me out a ton with the sound equipment,” Woods said. “I couldnʼt have done it without them.”

The Internet has played witness to a variety of groups that have created their own variation of the song and dance including

the University of Colo-rado, Colorado College, University of Denver and Colorado State Univer-sity.

Each university tends to include an iconic cam-pus feature like a mascot or setting. The University of Northern Colorado was no different with its video shoot, as it enlisted the two-story infl atable Bear seen at sporting events and mascot Klawz to be present at the new loca-tion on west campus.

History Club to examine the changing roles of women

The History Club will exam-ine the role of women in society and how it has changed through-out the years with the open discussion titled “Beyond the Kitchen?”

The event will take place from 4:30–6:30 p.m. Thursday in Gov-ernment Publications, located on the bottom fl oor of Michener Li-brary. The event is free and open to students, faculty and staff. The discussion will examine womenʼs places in society.

Some of the discussion will center around how media has portrayed women and their roles in society, how the previous tra-ditions compare to the role of the modern-day woman and sex as a means of power.

National history contest to be held on UNC campus

UNC is set to host the National History Day on March 2, which is a national competition celebrat-ing some of the most dynamic moments in human history. Mid-dle and high school students from across Northeastern Colorado are invited to participate based on their knowledge of history.

The day will go from 8 a.m.–2 p.m., and students, faculty and staff members are encouraged to get involved with the exciting day by applying to be judges for the competition. The judges will oversee journals, websites, per-formances and documentaries throughout the day.

By Cody Wright

The Wright Stuff

I see America as a country which is open to entrepre-

neurial innovation and a country that welcomes the ideas of workers to boost profi ts through marketing and business techniques.

Large corporations de-velop creative strategies to attract customers every year in order to keep the countryʼs companies on top. A lot of time, effort, study and planning is in-cluded in the hard work these employees under-take to increase perfor-mance in different aspects of their respective busi-nesses.

I respect how well these

companies perform and admire how, over years of time and dedication, these companies become as in-fl uential and profi table as they are. I love that intel-lectually innovative tac-tics are a celebrated aspect within the American com-munity. We protect these tactics as much as pos-sible, but what happens when someone elseʼs hard work is stolen?

According to The Den-ver Post, China has been accused of stealing intel-lectual property for years; The Post points out that this suspicion has been circulating for about a de-cade. Many believe that China has been hacking into the computer systems of companies, taking their business secrets and using those stolen secrets for its own benefi t.

Upon fi rst reading this article, I was appalled.

America has worked with China for so long that this seems to be one of the most underhanded blows another country could deal inside such a part-nership. What happened to the idea of fair com-petition between corpora-tions? Chinese competi-tors, it is widely believed, have stolen intellectual property and money from those who took the ef-fort and the time to create them and continue to deny it. Even if denying the ac-tion continues, one might assume that China would at least have the decency to cease its actions while under such scrutiny.

I am glad that Mandi-ant — a cyber-security fi rm that fi rst created the detailed document about the possibility of Chinese interference and theft — has been tracking these happenings. As stated by

the editorial piece on The Denver Postʼs website, no, there is not defi nite proof of the actions, but the amazing number of coincidences has many, including the Obama ad-ministration, convinced that something is afoot. In my experience, co-incidences only happen so much before a pat-tern establishes a hidden truth, whether positive or negative.

Many ideas have come to pressure the stopping of these hacks including the denial of visas to ma-jor Chinese company ex-ecutives and the students or researchers who have been supposedly aiding the Chinese military with these cybernetic thefts.

I hope the ideas are put to practice. They are great starting blocks in the race to solving this problem. Even for a short amount

of time, the United States might see a decrease in the number of hacks if threats are carried out. These pos-sibilities could turn into a long-term benefi t because those accused might be unlikely to continue.

The best action the United States could have taken was to immediately put these ideas into prac-tice years ago and exam-ine what results emerged. I believe more than a mere mention of a threat should be used in this problem. Action needs to be taken now, even if it is placed on simple leads that the gov-ernment has. Nothing ever came from a lack of ac-tion, and action is the only way this problem will be solved.

Curiosity killed the cat, and the population pinned it on Pope Benedict XVI.

Thursday marks the pope s̓ fi nal day, as he announced his resigna-tion earlier this month.

In a historic event in the Catho-lic Church — one which has hap-pened only once before — the sto-ry everyone is curious as to why, with an abundance of scandals fl oating around as reasons behind the pope s̓ decision.

Child abuse, sex, money, lies and cover-ups were all guesses to try to fi gure out the abrupt and un-precedented retirement.

The last pope to resign was Pope Gregory XII, who stepped down in 1415 to end the Great Schism — a

time when two people claimed to be the sole divine connection be-tween this world and God.

As for Pope Benedict XVI, there is no other man being rec-ognized as the head of the Roman Catholic Church, which leads to the question of why. Why now, as we Catholics have entered a time of penance and servitude leading up to the celebration of Jesus Christ s̓ crucifi xion and resurrection?

The Catholic Church doesnʼt have a squeaky-clean record, and many are quick to suspect the worst. But if it were death leading up to an election of a new leader in the Church, would these head-lines read the same? Would people be questioning the integrity of the

leader of one of the world s̓ largest religions?

The answer is no. Although he wouldnʼt get the same celebration and mourning as Pope John Paul II did in 2005, Benedict XVI s̓ life and papacy would be celebrated, not painted red with rumors.

The pope named old age and an inability to fulfi ll his papal duties as his reason to resign. Especially after watching his predecessor in his fi nal years keeping the reigns as pope, it is understandable why Benedict XVI would see himself as unfi t to continue on as pope. Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, as he was known before becoming pope, stood at John Paul II s̓ side dur-ing his fi nal days. Anyone who

watched the late pope in his fi nal days saw how frail he was.

Is there more than the statement behind the pope s̓ resignation? I may not know, but I do know I have faith in others, and especially faith in the pope. These last few days with Benedict XVI as reign-ing pope will be a bittersweet cel-ebration among Catholics.

Regardless of the color of the cat, the truth of the matter is Cath-olics and the world will be antici-pating the black smoke s̓ change to white as the newest leader takes reign in the Catholic Church.

The poll is temporarily closed while we upgrade our website.

Speaker recounts tragic civil rights interactionKelsey [email protected]

When keynote speaker Byron Embryʼs slide show projected an image of Em-mett Tillʼs face after his death in August 1955, the audience in Longs Peak Ballroom in the University Center was fi lled with ap-palled gasps.

Tillʼs face barely looks human. His eyes and tongue are missing, and his body is swollen from days of fl oating in the Tallahatchie River in Mississippi. Tillʼs brutalized face was an im-age that stuck in the minds of Americans, especially since his murderers re-ceived no justice.

The images posted in “The Chicago Defender” and “Jet” magazine shocked viewers. It was the image of Tillʼs face that Rosa Parks couldnʼt get out of her head and the reason Embry says Parks wouldnʼt leave her bus seat.

Embry visited campus Feb. 21 to tell students about Tillʼs story, commem-orating the young man for whistling loud enough for America to hear, a whistle that signaled to us all that it was time to change.

Kanani Oliveros, a ju-nior elementary education major, said she attended Embryʼs presentation to learn more about Tillʼs life before he was killed for supposedly fl irting with a white woman during a time when doing so was an inap-propriate action for black people.

“This speech helped me to gain more perspective, and Iʼm here with the rest of my history of African Americans class,” Oliveros said.

As Embry retells the night of Tillʼs death, it be-comes an intense descrip-tion.

“Itʼs 2: 30 a.m.!” Embry shouts during the portion of See TILL on Page 5

NEWS

Page 5: Monday, Feb. 25, 2013 e-mirror

the presentation when he invokes Roy Bryant and J.W. Milam pounding on the door of sharecropper Mose Wrightʼs home in search of Till.

Like most 14-year-olds, Embry explained to the au-dience, Till was looking for ways to challenge authority. His mother, Amy Till knew he would get in trouble do-ing something. When Till visited his cousins in Mis-sissippi, he was warned that things in their state are far different than his home-town of Chicago.

When friends dare Till to whistle at Carolyn Bry-ant, who was working at Bryantʼs Grocery and Meat Market, Till obliges.

“Sometimes I wonder what a conversation be-tween Emmett and I would be like,” Embry said. “I think that he might say, ʻI didnʼt whistle that loud, ̓but I would tell him he whistled loud enough.”

Tillʼs whistle caused an

uproar in Money, Miss., and his punishment for his actions would be a wake-up call to America that prompt-ed many people to fi ght for equality and justice.

Tillʼs actions and death would eventually become a catalyst of the Civil Rights movement.

Embry included in his presentation information about his own family, in-cluding showing the audi-ence picture of his 8-year-old daughter, Alexis.

“When Alexis tells, ʻKnowledge is power, ̓ I

just smile and remind her that no, the application of knowledge is power,” Em-bry said.

He described knowledge as potential energy and the application to be kinetic.

Despite threats, burn-ing effi gies and hate mail fl ooding her home, Amy Till refused to be silent and pursued justice, taking the case to court and demand-ing that her son have an open-casket funeral.

“She wanted everyone to see what they had done,” Embry said.

Dance steps to be taught at art show Shimon [email protected]

Non-profi t orga-nization Mosaic and UNCʼs swing dance club Tenth Avenue Swing have arranged a community art show called “Steps” to be showcased at 5 p.m. March 1 at the Atlas Theater.

The show includes a silent auction of lo-cal artists ̓work that will take place at 9:30 p.m.

The proceeds will be given to Chil-dren of Peace Inter-national (COPI) to aid underprivileged

children in Vietnam. Mosaic is requesting minimum donations — $5 for University of Northern Colo-rado students and $10 for non-students — at the door.

Tenth Avenue Swing will be offer-ing free swing and blues dance lessons at the event, and those in attendance are encouraged to dance until the showʼs close.

Austin Seeley, a junior psychol-ogy major and a co-planner of the event, discussed why the art show is

titled “Steps.”“The theme is

tied to swing dance, but the idea is also central to the vision of the organization that is ensuring the advancement, well-being and future of the kids in Vietnam who otherwise are on a path that is poten-tially headed to some pretty dark places,” Seeley said.

Every year, Mo-saic organizes two community art shows like “Steps.” Typi-cal shows include paintings, drawings, photographs, silk ba-tik, sculptures, light

sculptures, installa-tions and ceramics.

“Steps” being held at the Atlas Theater at 709 16th St. will allow early-comers an oppor-tunity to wander through other gal-leries within walk-ing distance before attending the event and gain some in-sight into how lo-cal businesses are showcasing local arts and crafts on the fi rst Friday of every month.

Weld County cit-izen Heather Vassar said she plans on at-tending the event.

“Greeleyʼs art community re-ally seems to be strengthening late-ly,” Vassar said.

Anyone interested in donating can drop off their framed art-work at John Galt Coffee — attached to the Atlas — Monday and Tuesday between the hours of 6:30 and 9:30 p.m.

Questions regard-ing submissions can be directed to Seeley at (970) 978-7068. Students may re-quest compensation for art supplies used to make donations.

Senior visual art

major Katie Stanford said she is planning on donating original artwork to the event.

“ʻSteps ̓is a beau-tiful example of the power that art and community have to create change,” Stan-ford said. “Art moves individuals and com-munities, but we are who we are because of who we all are, so in a way, community creates its own kind of art — the mas-terpiece of coming together in solidarity for a worthy cause and the genuine en-joyment of each oth-erʼs company.”

Bands collaborate to deliver high-quality showOdil [email protected]

UNCʼs School of Mu-sic hosted a concert last Tuesday at the Union Colony Civic Center, where about 300 attend-ees gathered to listen to 10 arrangements played by students.

The concert was di-vided into three groups of musicians — the concert band, symphonic band and wind ensemble. Each band has different needs and abilities, and the di-rectors try to choose ap-propriate, challenging music — but not beyond the students ̓abilities.

“I love coming to these concerts because it is en-couraging to listen to how well these students play,” said Xanadu Trevino, a freshman chemistry ma-jor. “I am amazed at the talent of our university.”

Professors such as Kenneth Singleton, who has been at the University

of Northern Colorado for 28 years and is also the director of bands for the School of Music, con-ducted the concert band and wind ensemble. Other conductors were masterʼs students and assistant professors for the School of Music.

It is essential for con-ductors to unify the mu-sical performers, set the tempo and shape the sound of the arrangements.

“It looks easy, but it takes years of training in all aspects of music,” Sin-gleton said. “Preparation for the concert is the most demanding part.”

The pieces, many written by well-known composers, included “The Free Lance” and “March” by John Philip Sousa, “Pageant” and “Op. 59” by Vincent Persichetti, “Clarinet Concerto in A,K. 622” by W.A. Mo-zart, and the last perfor-mance, “Symphony in B-fl at for Band” by Paul

Hindemith, which fea-tured Luci Disano on the clarinet.

Disano is a UNC graduate student complet-ing her degree in clarinet performance. She won the 2011 Rocky Moun-tain Competition and was given the opportunity to perform a solo during the fi nal performance of the event.

“I came here tonight to

support friends because I care about their perfor-mance and know they will be strong and high-qual-ity presentations,” said Jordan Skomal, a senior in Jazz studies.

The School of Mu-sic performs many con-certs throughout the year and will be holding the Wind Ensemble Cham-ber Winds concert at 7:30 p.m. March 5 at Hensel

Phelps Theatre in the UCCC. Its biggest con-cert of the year will be at 7:30 p.m. April 6 in Mon-fort Hall of the UCCC. This concert is part of the Colorado All-State Bands weekend. All three of the bands will play and then perform with more than 200 additional musicians to produce a very loud and exciting piece to end the concert.

AquaBears hope to make splash at WAC ChampionshipMichael [email protected]

The UNC swimming and diving team takes its fi rst dip in the Western Athletic Conference pool this week as it heads to San Antonio for the con-ference championship meet.

The University of Northern Colorado will compete for the fi rst time against the likes of mar-quee WAC teams such as San Jose State and Denver.

Head coach Kelly Mc-Clanahan said she is care-ful to set reasonable goals for her club in light of its place as the new kid on the block, but she is confi -dent her group can be suc-cessful even if it doesnʼt necessarily mean taking fi rst place.

“What I want is for us to come out of there with fourth or fi fth place,” she

said. “If we get fourth, weʼre at the top of that middle tier.”

Junior swimmer Court-ney Van Oost said sheʼs looking forward to seeing new conference rivals.

“This is our fi rst year in the WAC, so itʼs the fi rst time weʼll get to see our competition, really,” she said.

Junior Gina Riggle said the team has been working on ironing out any issues in mechanics prior to ta-pering in preparation for the conference champion-ship.

“Mostly, we work on stroke mechanics and stretching and stuff, just fi ne-tuning our races go-ing into conference,” Rig-gle said. “We donʼt want to be burned out going in there since it is four days of racing straight.”

The AquaBears will be-gin competition this week on Wednesday after a day

of practice on Tuesday. The Wednesday lineup consists of the 200-yard medley relay, one-meter diving and 800 freestyle relay. Saturday marks the last day of races and dives, as the 400 freestyle relay is the 21st and last event of the meet.

UNC is not only look-ing to fi nish well in the conference standings, but it is also hoping to set new school record and new personal best. McClana-han said she thinks her team is capable of break-ing a number of marks set by previous Bears.

“On an individual level, I want to see those personal-best times so the girls end the season on a high note,” she said. “Team-wise, Iʼve got quite a few goals. There are legitimately 12 events up there where we can set new school records out of the 18 events, taking div-

ing out.”Junior Kylie Rathbone,

who swims on the 200 medley relay, said she has to step up her game when-ever sheʼs working on a relay team with her Aqua-Bear teammates.

“I feel like since (swimming) is seen as an individual sport, relays are just more intense,” she said.

Freshman Jenny La-porte also swims on the 200 and said the length — or lack thereof — of that event is what makes it unique to her.

“In the 200, itʼs a little bit more pressure but itʼs also more exciting be-cause itʼs so fast and you say, ʻOh my gosh, I donʼt even know what just hap-pened,ʼ” she said.

As the championship will take place in the city of the Alamo, UNC is hop-ing nobody in attendance will forget the AquaBears.

whopping 72 shots, but they only converted 21 of those attempts for a 29 percent mark from the fi eld. Southern Utah took a bit of a differ-ent route to its points, scoring on 30 of its 36 free throw attempts. Thun-derbirds guard Hailey Mandelko led the charge, going 12-of-15 from the charity stripe and scoring 17 of her 21 points in the second half.

UNC struggled offensively against SUUʼs zone defense, but Strange — who led the team with 24 points — said the tactic was not a surprise, focusing instead on the Bears ̓diffi culty shooting.

“Their zone wasnʼt anything dif-ferent that we havenʼt seen,” she said. “It all just comes down to hit-ting shots.”

Each team employed defensive pressure at different points in the game, but the strategy proved more effective for the Thunderbirds. They

forced 11 fi rst-half turnovers, in-cluding one on each of the last three UNC possessions, save for a full-court heave at the halftime buzzer. The pressure created a physical game that carried into the post, according to UNC senior for-ward Lauren Oosdyke.

“The whole game I was on the block, and I had three people on me, just laying on me,” Oosdyke said. “I was trying to get out and do stuff but thereʼs only so much you can do. Our outside shots werenʼt on and thatʼs just how it went but itʼs not an excuse.”

With the loss and Montanaʼs odd weekend off, UNC is one-half game out of fi rst in the Big Sky. The win-ner of the conference regular season title earns the right to host the con-ference championship tournament. Strange said her focus, though, is on Thursdayʼs game against Eastern Washington.

“The thing about failure is youʼve just got to grow from it and learn from your mistakes and just respond and thatʼs what weʼre going to do against Eastern Washington,” she said.

Thursdayʼs game against Eastern Washington is set for 7:05 p.m. at Butler-Hancock Sports Pavilion.

Men lose to UC Davis in BracketBusterStaff [email protected]

The UNC menʼs bas-ketball team lost its ESPN BracketBusters game 79-78 Saturday at University of California—Davis on a last-second shot.

More accurately, the shot came with two sec-onds left off the fi ngertips of UCD shooting guard Paolo Mancasola and, for the second game in a row, the University of North-ern Colorado (9-17, 7-10) were defeated in the end.

The Bears were unable to get a desperation shot off before the fi nal buzzer, sealing their fate in the non-conference contest.

Leading UNC in the defeat was junior guard Tate Unruh, who poured in 19 fi rst-half points on 5-of-5 shooting from long distance and two more makes from two-point territory. Unfortunately for the Bears, Unruh only scored two points in the second half.

At the break, the Bears led 39-34. In the second half, they again scored 39, but allowed UC Davis to put up 45 points.

UNC junior power forward Derrick Barden almost reached a double-double as he fi nished sec-ond on the team with 17 points and led UNC with nine rebounds. Junior guard Paul Garnica was the fi nal Bear in double-digits with 12 points, all of which came in the sec-ond half.

The Bears will return to play at 7:05 p.m. Thurs-day in Cheney, Wash., to face Eastern Washington.

Men take ninth, women 10th at Big Sky Indoor Championships Staff [email protected]

The Big Sky Confer-ence Indoor Track and Field Championship took place Friday and Saturday in Bozeman, Mont., and UNC s̓ men fi nished ninth, while the women placed 10th.

On the men s̓ side, the Univer-sity of Northern Arizona tallied 138.5 points to fi nish points while the University of Northern Col-orado recorded 21 points. Sacramento State won the women s̓ contest with 107

points and UNC fi nished with 23.

UNC sophomore high jumper Trevor Evanson was the only Bear able to

achieve a first-place fi nish as he reached 2.15 meters, a season high. Evan-son actually tied with N o r t h e r n A r i z o n a ʼs

Deante Kemper, who had jumped 7 feet, 3 inches earlier in the season, but Evanson was awarded the championship based on jump attempts.

Other notable UNC per-formances included fresh-man Alisha Allen coming in second in the women s̓ triple jump and freshman

F r a n c i s c o Au fi nishing third in the men s̓ ver-sion. Both triple jumpers were named to the All-Big Sky team. The teams have a couple weeks off

before competition starts again. The Bears will com-pete in the fi rst meet of out-door season at the CU Potts Invite March 16.

Annual job, internship fair offers look into spring positionsAlexander [email protected]

Career Services gave students a hand with their job search at the annual Spring Job Fair Thursday in the University Center Ballrooms.

The job fair is the sec-ond of the year, as the fi rst fair took place in the fall. Students explored various industries at the fair, which featured 78 regional and national employers.

“(The goal is) to help students fi nd internships and full-time employment,” said Renee Welch, director of Career Services.

According to the annual Cooperative Institutional Research Program survey, 86 percent of incoming freshman at UNC consider their number one motiva-tion for attending college to be gaining employment.

The job fair offered a broad fi eld of prospec-tive employers, appealing to a wide range of majors. Students from every major

area of study were able to interact face-to-face with professionals and industry representatives. Some of the larger companies in at-tendance included Kraft Foods, Farmers Insurance,

T. Rowe Price, Target, Wells Fargo and Kaiser Permanente.

Representatives from schools such as the Mon-fort School of Business, Colorado State University,

University of Colorado-Denver, Regis University, Skaggs School of Pharma-cy, University of Northern Colorado Graduate Schools and University of Colorado-Colorado Springs were on

hand for students interested in pursuing post-graduate education.

Students seeking a more radical alternative had the opportunity to speak with representatives from service-based organiza-tions such as AmeriCorps NCCC and Peace Corps. AmeriCorps NCCC gives individuals ages 18-24 the opportunity to participate in extensive service proj-ects throughout the United States while earning up to $5,500 in higher education grants.

Representatives from police departments in Au-rora, Broomfi eld, Estes Park, Fort Worth, Golden, Weld County and Wheat Ridge were available for students interested in stu-dent justice.

Jesse Eves of Modern Woodmen of America Fi-nancial Services said his fi rm often accepts interns from a wide range of ma-jors beyond fi nance.

“Sometimes fi nance peo-ple do really well, but also

people that just like work-ing with others and solving their needs,” Eves said.

Despite the emergence of social networking and online employment sites such as Indeed, Monster and Simply Hired, conven-tional job fairs continue to be a fi xture of professional recruitment.

The job fair catered not only to students seeking postgraduate solutions but underclassmen, as well. In fact, most internships are open to students who have completed at least one year of college or more, depend-ing on the industry.

“I know that most of the students here are looking for summer internships and summer jobs, and I spoke with a lot of students who were either freshman or es-pecially sophomores,” said Leticia Levi from Denver Teach Residency. “I did speak with a few students that are graduating this year, and it would be a perfect fi t for them to come into our programs.”

Students auction off dates while donating to Relay for LifeColleen [email protected]

There were about 30 hopeful girls Friday eve-ning in the Columbine suites of the University Center trying to land a date with 12 of some of UNCʼs most eligible bachelors who volunteered their time and love for a great cause.

The Relay for Life com-mittee sought men all across campus to take part in a si-lent date auction that would benefi t the organizationʼs cause of supporting cancer research.

The night raised about $280 from the dates them-selves and about $100 from T-shirt sales.

“We went to a lot of the fraternity meetings, put up posters and created a num-ber of Facebook groups seeking guys to join our date auction,” said Jayme

Thompson, the activities and entertainment chair for Relay for Life. “The auc-tion was open to all UNC male students. However, a

majority of them ended up coming from Greek Life. We were really thrilled to get a few volunteers from the UNC radio station at the

last minute as well. It was generally just a great group of guys.”

The men up for bid were required to put together a basket of things that they would do on their date. Be-fore the ladies were allowed to start bidding, the men all stood to introduce them-selves to the room and de-scribe their date. After that, the ladies were free to start bidding. Every gentlemanʼs bid opened at $10.

As the bidding proceeded for about an hour, the men up for grabs entertained the crowd with dance moves and stories of their most embarrassing moments at the University of Northern Colorado.

“The highest bid was $41 dollars and it was bid on Mr. Sam Wood,” Thomp-son said. “The winner of his basket was Ms. Lauryn Curtis.”

Woodʼs date include din-ner at the Olive Garden fol-lowed by a trip to the Un-derground Comedy Club.

“It was an honor to be able to raise that amount of money for such a great cause,” said Wood, a senior geography major. “I vol-unteered because I felt like since the radio is a huge sponsor for Relay for Life, we should play a bigger role in their events leading up to the actual relay.”

Wood was not the only date who volunteered to help out Relay for Life.

“Youʼre only in college once so why not help out a great cause,” said Kyle Riley, a senior sports and exercise science major. “Plus maybe I could meet someone.”

Additionally, other dates said the cause was simply an enjoyable way of assist-ing people.

“Iʼm here strictly for the cause,” said Jake Buck, a junior psychology major. “I love helping the com-munity in any way that I can — especially medical reasons.”

If students are still in-terested in forming a Relay for Life team for the event April 5-6, the fi nal team captain meeting will be at 7 p.m. March 7 in the As-pen suites of the University Center.

Starting junior center Connor Osborne has been chided during his time on the UNC menʼs basketball team for letting himself go, particularly during the offseason. This time around, though, itʼs been his hair thatʼs lacked maintenance instead of his body shape.

Baby steps, people. Baby steps.

Head coach B.J. Hill said staying in good shape has en-abled Osborne to help the Univer-sity of Northern Colorado in ways he previously could not.

“With him being in shape, heʼs able to do things that he hasnʼt been able to do athletically for us,” Hill said. “You see him tip dunk, you see him rebounding

outside of his area, that he didnʼt do last year because he is in the best shape of his life. If he can (maintain shape in the offseason) for us, I think youʼll see him have a greater impact on both ends of the fl oor.”

O s b o r n e doesnʼt necessarily fi ll up the stat sheet the way other players may, as he aver-ages just about fi ve points

per game and 4.3 rebounds but tied his career high with 19 points Wednesday against North Dakota. Osborne shoots nearly 50 percent from the fi eld, illustrating how well Osborne understands his game and his role on the team.

Fellow big man, sophomore Brendan Keane, says Osborne is helpful to the team in a variety of ways.

“Even when he doesnʼt get big stats, he still affects the game tremendously, whether itʼs defen-sively — coach always says heʼs our best team defender,” Keane said. “Offensively, he passes the ball really well out of the post. Heʼs one of the best post passers in the league, for sure. He just makes the plays that he has to for us to win.”

After missing the 2010-11 Big Sky Championship season with an injury, Osborne came back to the court a starter in the fall of 2011 and has been a leader for the Bears ever since.

The Average Life of Nicci Bee By Nicole Busse

Four seniors refl ect on career with fi nal week in sightAntonio [email protected]

Every athlete, whether it is in the collegiate level or the profes-sional, eventually meets an end to his or her journey.

The UNC swimming and div-ing team has four athletes who have put everything they have into the four years they have been at UNC, but their time here will soon be coming to a close. Tatum Boehnke, Sara Moldenhauer, Ali-cen Fair and Hattie Oatts will all be competing for a fi nal conference meet this week.

The sole diver of the senior class is Moldenhauer, an elemen-tary education major. Gymnastics occupied the early part of her life, but she switched to diving in high school after an injury. The switch was a strong one for Moldena-huer, who has her name in nine different slots in the UNC record book, holding fi ve of the seven

records for the platform, includ-ing a No. 1 slot with 193.4 points. Moldenhauer broke the record Nov. 18 during the Wildcat Div-ing Invitational.

“The meet where I broke the platform record was special for me because I had only practiced

three times before the meet that I broke the re-cord,” Mold-enhauer re-called. “It was just so un-expected for me because we donʼt have

platform here.”In the 3-meter dive, Molden-

hauer holds the sixth-best score of 294.9, which she earned last sea-son. Diver Kelly Schmeckpeper-Cook currently holds the record with 302.63 from 2010.

“In my last meet at UNC, I would like to get the 3-meter re-cord and Iʼm pretty close to it,” Moldenhauer said.

Boehnke is a senior swimmer who competes in the mile and 200-meter butterfl y. Boehnke be-gan swimming at the age of nine and started competing at the age of 10. One thing Boehnke said about her experience at UNC is the fam-ily unit between the members of

the team, with some lasting after some are no longer with the team.

“We all have become such a big family,” she said. “Iʼm still in contact with swimmers

who were seniors when I was a freshman, and I plan on staying in contact with the team when Iʼm gone too.”

This week will be the teamʼs fi nal competition this season, and Boehnkeʼs focus remains on im-provement.

“I just want to go out on a good note,” Boehnke said. “I have had such a good time here, I canʼt

imagine leaving it in any other fashion and leaving it with all the other seniors is the perfect way.”

Fair, also an elementary edu-cation major, started swimming when she was nine because her mom found an ad in the newspa-per about a swim team and she

decided to join.

“ I ʼ v e loved it,” Fair said. “Honestly, I donʼt think col-lege would have been what it was

without the swim team. I think coming in and having that second family really helped me adjust to college.”

Oatts said one of her favorite memories involves training out-side of Colorado.

“My freshman year training trip to Florida, we had some real-ly hard practices, but the team had such a fun time hanging out at the

beach,” Oatts said. “It was awe-some being in Florida instead of Colorado in middle of January.”

One thing all the seniors ex-pressed as a favorite part of their careers is conference meets.

“Conference is always a fun one,” Fair said. “Everyone always

swims so fast and thatʼs what keeps us com-ing back each year. Itʼs worth all the extra effort in practice to go out as fast you can.”

The coach of all four of these athletes, Kelly McClanahan, couldnʼt be happier to see how far these athletes have come.

“We came in at the same time — their freshman year was my fi rst year here,” McClana-han said. “So we have defi nitely grown up together. I would say all four of them have become the foundation of the team. Without them and the work ethic they pass down to the three genera-tions below them, we would not be where we are today.”

then the 6-foot-9 Osborne is UNCʼs Secretary of Defense, as he lacks the military haircut and must survey the scene each time down the court, relaying strategy and positioning to his fellow hardwood sol-diers.

“I really try to see ev-erything as itʼs going down, so I try to get the whole perspective and re-ally communicate,” he

said. “I really try to plan everything out. With a sound defense, weʼve got such great talent, so as long as weʼve got defense, weʼll be all right.”

Hill lauds Osborneʼs basketball intelligence, specifi cally for someone who plays the center posi-tion.

“Offensively, heʼs a great passer — frees up a lot of guys and makes a lot

of plays, has a really good feel for the game on the offensive end,” Hill said. “Defensively, heʼs a great team defender. He sees ev-erything, he talks and heʼs able to be kind of a cap-tain from behind the play defensively.”

Though an unques-tioned leader and commu-nicator for UNC, Osborne said such a role was not natural for him at fi rst.

“Iʼve never been that type of a leader, so itʼs kind of been diffi cult for me to try to step up into that role

but with the help of these guys and the coaches, I think Iʼm getting better with it and getting a bit more comfortable with that role,” he said.

Keane, too, stated as much, in no uncertain terms.

“Heʼs a smart guy, heʼs well spoken and everyone respects him,” Keane said. “Nobody would want to fi ght him.”

With his current fi t-ness level and unkempt hairstyle, not many would likely disagree.

Dance event unites campus“The Saturday before,

UNC Athletics messaged me on Facebook and said they could bring Klawz and the large infl atable bear,” Woods said.

Turner green, under the shadows of Lawrenson and Turner Halls, was instantly fi lled with costumed stu-dents eager to ride the wave of the next YouTube craze.

“I want to thank the UNC students for coming out and supporting and being a part of something that united the community,” Woods said.

There were students dressed as super heroes, some of Halloweenʼs most

identifi able costumes and even somebody in a banana suit.

“From what I could tell, Iʼd say there were around 200 people participating on Turner Green with quite a number on the sides watch-ing,” said Shan Yang, a se-nior journalism major. “I thought it was pretty cool how Will Woods set it up and got the student radio and Bear News station in-volved. I loved all the dif-ferent outfi ts and costumes people came dressed up in.”

One might ask what the Harlem Shake really is. Itʼs an Internet meme that copies an original video

uploaded by video blogger “Filthy_Frank,” who on Jan. 30 posted a 36-second clip of four people in latex suits dancing and gyrating to the song.

The “Harlem Shake” song is by Baauer, and was uploaded to YouTube on May 10, 2012 but didnʼt reach its current fame until early 2013.

“It was pretty crazy,” said Garrett Spradlin, a se-nior journalism major. “I think that UNC never does anything like this, so itʼs cool to see them actually pull it off. I am defi nitely glad that during my senior year that I was a part of it.”
